Customer from all the way up in Vermont sent me his Cadillac CTS-V headlights for a bit of custom lighting upgrades.This one followed along the lines of our SEMA build we did for XS Batteries...but with an additional upgrade.

First off, stripped all of the chrome down to bare plastic then painted everything Gloss Black.Then moved on to the projector lenses....swapped out the frosted OEM lenses to Clear Black Series lenses with a custom SheDevil Vixen logo the customer wanted....the lens provides with a much sharper output and cut-off.I also did a Black Resting Demon Eye Paint to make the lens appear more 'dark'....as we also painted the turn signal and DRL buckets to make them appear 'dark' as well.

Next, on to the lighting.We did Multi-colored RGB Demon Eyes, as well as Halos and Tube Accent Lighting.While the factory Tube lighting still functions...it can't even compare to how bright the new RGB LEDs are....but because of how the technology is with the 5050 LED chips, the diffused CTS tube casts different colors at different angles....so the White on RGB is mixed with spurts of Green and Blue and Red....but very hard to pick-up unless told (or read on this bloggity blog)

Next, we stole the idea from a past project of mine.....where the owner made up some custom bent Glass tubes and I set 2 switchback Strips into them.....this was done to carry the look of the top headlight tube down and into the bumper area via the factory foglight housing.....kind of like what Cadillac is doing now with most of their vehicles (Escalade, ATS, etc)

I'll upload final pictures once the client gets the lights installed and wired up on the car.

Oh Hey...look! Some GMC Sierra headlights....haven't done a set of these yet :-)

Customer sent in his lights to get the Trax touch.....with his provided Klearz lenses and Profile Halos.

While we don't normally like halos (they typically take away from the look of the headlights when everything is OFF)....we opted to do these because they match the White lenses from Klearz.

We did our Morimoto D2S projector upgrade with CBD adapters, 35w bulbs and hylux ballasts....but this time we did a custom GMC lens etch to match the grill of the truck....subtle touches like this can make/break the build.

We also upgraded the boards with Diode Dynamics switchbacks......trusted and true...best way to achieve a unique look and have other Sierra owners asking where he got the lights simply by turning on his turn signals...

Then we did our RGBWtf Rainbow Unicorn upgrade with the Triple Demon Eye accent lights.

The halos are a different style of LEDs so they are on their own separate controller...but can be the same solid colors as the Demon Eyes...so they can work in conjunction or fully separate. They are RGBWA...so they do multi color, White AND Amber for turn signals.

Then we painted all the internals Gloss Black and swapped the lenses for the Klearz white frosted look.

If you've been into my shop anytime in the last year and a half...maybe more....you've definitely seen these lights hanging around.My homie Lewin needed some refreshed headlights for Project Dozer....his Lifted Dodge Ram truck.This time, he wanted to go away from the 'subtle' approach and move more towards the "hey, hey you, look at me" lifestyle....not that Dozer doesn't already demand your attention.

Anyways, this project started off with a Version 7 Bi-Xenon HID Projector that got a nice Passive Green Demon Eye Paint Job to get that 'green' look when OFF. Then I added a Multi-Colored Active Demon Eye accent strip in there to show you the kick ass etched 'Trax' logo with hex boarder in ANY color you want....via a Bluetooth controller on his smart phone.

Then we covered ALL that goodness up with a Hydro-graphic dipped digi-camo Apollo shroud that was first painted Green to match his pin-stripe.

Then to be even more obnoxious, we opted to remove the factory turn signal bulb and housing completely and replace it with 3 Morimoto ModPod Switchback LED pods that were coated in the same green color. These bad boys are SUPER bright and what you'll most likely see when he's coming up on your from behind......something something that's what she said......

These lights actually match the truck VERY well for how little amount of green there actually is.....it turned out sick!My favorite feature is the effect the Active Demon Eyes give off due to the placement of them and the hex border etching....he's now got his very own aurora borealis at the push of a button on his smart phone!

Made contact with a stellar car audio battery supplier/manufacturer after seeing a rendering of their companies project build-up of their Cadillac CTS-V.Of course, the first thing that stood out to me was the headlights were un-touched....after a few emails we had a plan laid out and parts began shipping my way.Also on this massive build was Sponsor Oracle Lighting....so they sent us all the lights being used on this build.
